Inference of Historical Population-Size Changes with Allele-Frequency Data
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 With up to millions of nearly neutral polymorphisms now being routinely sampled in population-genomic surveys, it is possible to estimate the site-frequency spectrum of such sites with high precision.

The importance of calcium in improving resistance of Daphnia to Microcystis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Changing environmental calcium (Ca) and rising cyanobacterial blooms in lake habitats could strongly reduce Daphnia growth and survival. Here, we assessed the effects of maternal Ca in Daphnia on transfer of resistance to their offspring against ...

Successfully resisting a pathogen is rarely costly in
, 2010 Background A central hypothesis in the evolutionary ecology of parasitism is that trade-offs exist between resistance to parasites and other fitness components such as fecundity, growth, survival, and predator avoidance, or resistance to other parasites.
